Disappears on the screen during the research on the modern user interface

Original title: questions on screen keyboard

I have a problem of access to keyboard on screen when using specific features of Windows 8. The problem only occurs with my desktop PC, I also have a Surface Pro 3 without any problems. The problem is that whenever I search for something, either in the charms on the right shortcut window drag the keyboard screen on just disappears and cannot be reopened until I have cancel the search. Same thing in fashion Metro/modern, while searching for an app. However the problem does not seem to influence the research done in desktop mode in the my PC popup.

The Office I mainly use as a media center device for watching videos in different rooms when the office is physically. I can still use a physical keyboard to use searches, but sometimes my keyboard is not right next to me, while my mouse is always next to my hand. I found it faster to just short-circuit the keyboard input with the keyboard screen on when I browse the web. I know that the function should work because I do it all the time with my surface. Even with my keyboard attached to the surface, if I folded it with the kickstand on the back of the keyboard or just manually, click on the button of keyboard on screen with the keyboard typing normal position I can always get the screen keyboard works without any problem. I checked also with just my regular Asus laptop and who has the same problem as the office. This isn't really a problem with the laptop even if, as it is a standard design where the keyboard is not move or come off. Anyone has any ideas, it could be the cause? Thanks in advance to anyone who responds

Hi Will,

Welcome to the Microsoft community.

  • Using the screen keyboard or touch screen?

There are two types of virtual keyboards on Windows 8, on-screen keyboard and touchpad. You may experience this problem if you are using a touchscreen keyboard on the task bar. We have checked this on our computer of Windows 8 and its default value of design.

If you use the screen keyboard and the keyboard should not disappear if you use it in the modern user interface. Please confirm what virtual keyboard you use to help you also.

  • How can I check my battery life in Windows 8 in the modern user interface?

    I recently bought a RT of Surface. While I check the battery via the icon (no numbers) displayed in the modern user interface (by lock screen or the menu of charm), I can't seem to find the life of battery exact (in numbers) in the modern user interface. Any help?

    OK, you want the straight hours? Go to your desktop (not your departure). If you do not know the difference at the beginning is with tiles. Stand on the right side which is your battery icon. If it does not show an icon, follow other users have said. When you scroll over it, it will tell you how many hours and minutes you still have a percentage. Right now, mine is at 1 h 16 min with 26% battery. You can click if you want as well and it will tell you the same thing but with options on how you can save battery

  • s230u trackpoint scrolling acting funny in the modern user interface

    Hello

    I just got my Twist and all using it, I noticed that when you use the TrackPoint scrolling feature in the modern UI or apps from the modern UI that she acts like I'm using the arrow keys, it is more evident in the Startscreen. It works as expected on the desktop and the trackpad scrolling works as expected everywhere. The first thing I did when he got home was to run all updates that everything wanted, so I'm on the latest version of the driver.

    Does anyone else know this and nobody knows how to fix?

    EDIT also since this is my first ThinkPad, is this normal behavior?

    I think it's normal. Frankly, if I use a modern user interface program I'm probably scrolling by touching the screen in any way, so it's not something I often noticed.

    This is a silly question, but I'm not too tech savvy.  I don't know I have changed something somewhere.  I have the new Apple TV, and he had the new user interface, which means that the appearance of the applications using the applications, example, scroll down to Netflix, Netflix, etc. to research.  This weekend he returned to the UI I've seen on my old Apple TV. Does anyone know why this could have happened and how I me the new interface to return?  I did a reset to the original values Apple TV and it did not work.  The tvOS is 9.1 (13U85).

    Try to understand the issue.

    I have never heard of it and don't know how it is possible that they run entirely new software on the ATV4...

    Method 1:

    If you are able to boot into safe mode then I suggest to do a system restore to a previous point when the system worked very well and check.

    Step 1:

    I suggest to start in safe mode and check if the problem persists.

    a. restart the system and keep tapping F8 until you reach the start menu.

    b. Select safe mode from the list and press ENTER.

    I suggest you do a system restore and check. Follow the steps mentioned in the article below.

  • Problem scaling of the Windows user interface

    Animation of characters (Preview 1 and 2) both have problems with the Windows display scale. On my Thinkpad running Windows 8.1 and game scaling of the display to 125%, the buttons at the bottom of the Panel of the camera and the Microphone disappeared. If the display scale is set at 150%, buttons appeared but the whole user interface is very blurred. Here are 2 screenshots. The first is when the display is 125% and the second is when the display is at 150%.

  • Use the Flex user interface in a PS plugin

    Hello!

    I am a user relatively to the Flex user interface design! A couple of days, I thought to give my PS plugins a look of the Flex user interface! I searched the internet on some tutorials or guides, but there is very little information relating to this. The guide Builder Extension CS says that we can interact with the Flex user interface & a native application by using the branchezBranchez C++ library. There is an example of code in Illustrator SDK for the same under the name FreeGrid (C++) & FreeGridUI(Flex UI). But I couldn't find an equivalent in PS.

    On further research in this regard, I found that we can use the PlugPlug.h (& .cpp) with a few changes in our C++ PS of the plugin code. I'm stuck at this stage now. How can I do to get out of here?

    Guide me people.. !!

    Thank you!

  • After update of firefox mobile, I found that the modified user interface, is there a way to push back on mobile?

    I decided to update my firefox for android fotvthe flash support, but when I did I found the interface changed, now I want to go back, but unlike in I can't find older program versions for the desktop version.
    also, I should mention the problem of text entry that showd this version where the cursor is at the beginning of the first line to the place where im typing.

    Hello

    It is not an option for the old user interface on the new version, but you can get older versions here:
    https://FTP.Mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/Mobile/releases/
    But, we don't recommend that you use the old version because they are insecure, so take that into account if you decide to restore.

    For the text of entry question, can you tell me the brand and model of your device and if you use a special keyboard on any?

    Thank you!

  • How to run the Manager user interface programmatically

    I am looking for a method to run programmatically (from Labview), the Manager user interface, and then to connect it.

    Is there an API from .net to who?

    Thank you

    Note: I developed for earlier versions of VeriStand, a high-level application that manages projects of test benches and their versions. I want to update with the new manager of the user VeriStand interface.

    It is not a .NET API to control UI Manager, but there are some command line utilities, you can use to launch the user interface Manager, open a specific project, specify the IP address of the gateway to use and connect automatically.

    Try the following command line arguments:

    /nivsprj 'c:\project.nivsprj' Gateway localhost / connect
